Climate-related weather events are increasing in frequency and severity, putting pressure on local communities to adapt and respond quickly. KISTERS Raven helps councils, emergency services, and the general public stay one step ahead by providing timely access to critical environmental data. Whether it’s near real-time river levels, rainfall trends, or dam conditions, Raven delivers the insights needed to make informed decisions. This supports early warning systems, enables better planning for extreme events like floods and droughts, and ultimately builds stronger community resilience. The ability to visualise conditions as they change also empowers local authorities to communicate clearly with residents, reducing risk and uncertainty. Raven is a vital tool in preparing for a changing climate — one that helps transform raw data into meaningful, proactive action.

Public access to environmental data is no longer just a nice-to-have — it’s expected. KISTERS Raven enables organisations to build transparency into their operations by making water and climate data publicly visible in real time. This openness helps strengthen trust between councils, government agencies, and the communities they serve. Instead of relying on filtered updates or outdated reports, users can see the data for themselves — from rainfall totals and river levels to potential flood risks. Raven helps demystify decision-making processes by showing the evidence behind actions. For regulators and policymakers, this means reduced friction. For the public, it fosters confidence, accountability, and a sense of shared responsibility in environmental management.
